QUOTE(Decrepit @ Oct 21 2020, 07:47 AM) @mALX Sounds like coffee is as addictive for you as many junk foods are for me. I have to avoid them like the plague. No exceptions whatsoever. Should I eat even a few Potato Chips, before you know it I'll be downing an entire king-size bag a day. No willpower to stop whatsoever. Once hooked on chips, I'd of course expand my horizons to include other addiction junk foods. I was 'lucky' in being in a dire health situation where all foods tasted repulsive for an extended period of time. More than long enough for food addictions to vanish. It was then that I switched to the significantly healthier diet I've more or less followed ever since. I've heard nothing bad about Cayenne consumption. Take that for what little it's worth of course. Here's the result of an online search for Cayenne Pepper health benefits. Again, don't treat it as being gospel. Ooh, this article is great, thank you!

I never drink less than 3 cups per day. In the next year I'm leaving my profession of a doctor of general medicine behind, instead I'll work with patients that'll need recovery after strokes or other nerve-related diseases like brain tumors etc. Because such specific clinics in Slovenia don't yet exist, I'll continue my career in Austria, presumably I'll start working there in the 1st half of 2021, unless COVID-situation will mess up my plans, then I'll begin later. Not Germany anymore? This career change, was it inspired by something recent? I am about to have to undergo a nerve study to determine if a tumor on my thyroid is the cause of my left hand nerve damage/issues; or if it is being caused by something at the elbow. Two completely different nerves have been affected; both of them bottleneck together at the elbow and neck; so that is where they are going to look for the problem. Really interesting turn of specialization you are choosing!

Germany is too far, then my entire family would need to move with me or they'd see me rarely. So I decided for Austria in the end, I have 40 mins by car in one direction to the place where I will hopefully get a job.
That's an interesting case you're having, both of these could be an issue, although a thyroid tumor would then really need to be located at the very back of the gland to be in direct contact with the nerve. It's possible, but not really common. I assume that your neck / neck back area has been searched, that's a common cause behind nerve issues with hands.
The main reason why I won't work in Slovenia, isn't because I wouldn't find general medicine interesting anymore, but because I'm fed up with working conditions in our country, I feel more like an administrator than a doctor. So I could work in Austria as a general doctor as well, but the difference would only be slight, that's why I decided for something else.

Yes, to travel so far and only have a slight difference would be futile and not really satisfying in the end. And there are so many general practitioners that would be stiff competion when trying to build up a new practice in a new area like you would be doing. It would be hard to break into a practice anywhere else as a GP. But a specialist in a field where there is virtually no competition = really good plan. You would be able to call your own shots; and your practice would build out of the need for services only you were providing = really good plan. I was just surprised by that choice in a field to specialize in; mainly I guess I pictured you going into either a specialized Pediatric field or Obstetrics or something. (not sure why, just what I pictured, lol).

It's the same here in Sverige too. Doctor's barely have time to see their patients because of all the paperwork Ain't that the truth. Healthcare run like a business. Save money by having the doctors do their own paperwork! Fabulous idea!

QUOTE(mALX @ Nov 4 2020, 12:02 AM) RIP Sean Connery One of my favorite movies of all time: The Hunt For Red October Yeah. It happened the day my internet went belly-up. He remains easily my favorite Bond. I saw him and Michael Caine (still with us as 87) share leading role status in The Man Who Would Be King many decades ago. I thought very highly of it at the time. I wonder what I'd think of it now? A death that slipped under most folks' radar: James Randi. One-time performing magician who later morphed into a skeptic bent on challenging/exposing fraudulent paranormal and other practices. There are a good many videos of him at work at YouTube. Here's one: (video) James Randi vs Uri Geller - FIGHT (video)

Whatever else I may think of our US election results, one positive result is that I now have far less political junk mail bombarding my in-box! I still get them (plus a few political e-mails I consider legit), but not all them many. Easily manageable. Placed an order with Amazon a few minutes ago. Two utilitarian items plus a book. To be specific; a 1.5' CAT 8 cable to replace the CAT 7 cable connecting my router to AT&T's 'modem/gateway' due to a worn out securing prong on the older cable, a landline phone cord to replace the too-short cord that came with that phone, The Tower of Fools, book one of Andrzej Sapkowski's Hussite Trilogy. (Sapkowski's the fellow who wrote The Witcher series.)
